The Supreme Court's decision to strike down affirmative action, including in professional schools, like medical and nursing, will have detrimental consequences on Black health for generations to come. This is about life & death for us. Today, we are only 5% of physicians.

During a skin exam, the patient told me they had HIV. I acknowledged it and kept inspecting the skin, some areas with my bare hand. Patient teared up and thanked me for not “jumping away” as soon as I learned they were HIV positive. It’s 2022. HIV+ people are not dirty.

For our #BehavioralScientist colleagues training FM residents; if you make training about BH, it becomes finite. If you make training about healthcare, it becomes infinite. @STFM_FM @aafp @cfha_tweet @AnnFamMed @FamMedChat

This nation was built on peaceful protest. No elected official should lose their job simply for raising their voice – especially when they’re doing it on behalf of our children.

This is such a complex issue, but one aspect to highlight is that while multicultural education in APA programs exist, very little of it focuses on the Black community. I had a Latino psychology course in my program..I didn’t have a Black psychology course, and I should have.

“We should place less emphasis on whether Black men are resistant to therapy and more on understanding the contexts in which they already feel comfortable talking about their feelings and traumas."—@DrHoward_RECAST https://t.co/hUoofGAtih

Massive demand for behavioral health care in the primary care setting is forcing an overdue fusion of the two segments of medicine and whether health care systems or payers are ready, this fusion is happening. https://t.co/rcn4xl2jPZ

Finished the Pelosi Doc on HBO, it was a nice behind the scenes look at the speaker and her contributions. The quote at the end;

When we go before Him, God will ask, Where are your wounds? And we will say, I have no wounds. And God will ask, Was there nothing worth fighting for?

Truly heartbreaking what in the world are the LAPD being taught about de-escalation? I hope the family gets justice for Keenan Anderson. Say his name!

There must be a respect for human life. This young English teacher was in a car accident and had an anxiety attack and somehow he ended up tased to death by LAPD
